ls: cache ACL- and CAP-querying syscall failures

Like the optimization to avoid always-failing getfilecon calls,
this change avoids always-failing queries for whether a file has
a nontrivial ACL and for whether a file has certain "capabilities".
When such a query fails for one file (indicating no support), we know it
will always fail that way for the affected device.  With this change, we
have thus eliminated nearly all failing-unsupported getxattr syscalls.
* src/ls.c (has_capability) [!HAVE_CAP]: Set errno to ENOTSUP.
(errno_unsupported): Expand the list of E* errno values to match
that of lib/acl-internal.h's ACL_NOT_WELL_SUPPORTED macro.
(file_has_acl_cache, has_capability_cache): New functions.
(gobble_file): Use them in place of non-caching ones.
* NEWS (Improvements): Mention it.

While eliminating most getfilecon calls saved about 33%,
eliminating these other calls can save almost all of the
remaining ~67% cost, on some remote file systems.
